“As Natpe returns to in-person events, I am thrilled that Natpe Budapest International roars back in-person bringing fresh new content from around the world as we welcome back many distributors from around the globe and the strongest presence ever from CEE buyers. We are proud to host the Ukrainian Pavilion on the exhibition floor,” said JP Bommel, President and CEO, Natpe.
This year, there will also be a Ukrainian Pavilion, featuring five Ukrainian broadcasters: Film.UA Group, 1+1 media, Ukraine TV Channels, StarLight Media, UA Suspilne (public broadcaster), and Ukrainian Content Global Cooperation.
“These dramatic times have unveiled to us the real meaning of the words like partnership, friendship, and support.

Natpe is the next important step for the companies that come under the umbrella of Ukrainian Content Global Cooperation initiative (Film.UA Group, 1+1 media, Starlight Media, Ukraine TV Channels, Suspilne Media) for strengthening existing and finding new business opportunities. And there is some really big news that we’re going to announce in Budapest, so stay tuned!”, says Kateryna Udut, CEO of MRM, the organizer of the initiative.
